Novel Update
Chapter 201
It was almost 12 o’clock at night.
When Daran stepped into the packhouse’s lobby, he was immediately welcomed by a
hectic crowd.
There was a worried and tensed expression on every maid and servant’s face.
Casper stood in the center of the crowd, with Balvina by his side, and was roaring at
the soldiers:
“-I don’t fucking care how you find her! You can search the mountain and turn this pack upside down and it is fine with me! JUST FUCKING FIND HER!!!”
Daran’s face tensed immediately.
“What is going on?” Morgana cried behind Daran’s back.
Casper clenched his fists and gritted, “…Janet is missing.”
Morgana rounded her eyes, “What do you mean missing? She was at the vineyard yesterday with me! And Daran told me that she drove back by herself earlier today. Where has she been since?
“We wished that we knew!” Balvina said with a frustrated face, “The surveillance camera captured her going into the back mountain a couple of hours ago. But there has been no sign of her since.”
Daran pulled out his phone and wanted to try Janet’s number.
But Casper stopped him, “Don’t bother. We tried that already. At first, it just kept ringing. Then her phone was turned off.”
That was definitely odd.
Why would Janet turn off her phone?
“Let’s not get too wired up.” Morgana said, trying to ease up people’s nerves, “She went into the mountain, right? Maybe she went hiking. Let’s see if she comes back. tomorrow morning.”
“But hiking during the night? Without letting anyone know? It doesn’t sound like her!” Casper said urgently.
Anxiety boiled up in Daran’s chest.
He found this strange as well.
Then he thought back to the note that she left him on the pillow, which read:
Don’t want to wake you up. I am heading back to the packhouse first. Something I need to deal with. Come and find me when you are back. Love, Janet.
…Something she needed to deal with…
Daran snapped his head up and hissed, “Where the hell is Westin!”
Blank shock showed in people’s faces.
“…W–We didn’t see him,” Balvina stuttered.
A soldier stepped up and said, “We searched the Lycan’s room earlier. Didn’t find Princess Janet there.”
“What about Westin and his own men?” Daran pursued.
The soldier shook his head, “Their rooms are all empty. No sign of King Westin, nor his men.‘
“What the fuck-“Casper cried.
“Janet came back to talk to Westin,” Daran said in a hurried voice. “She is ending things with him. If their conversation didn’t go well-”
Balvina covered her mouth with her hands, “You think he will hurt her?!”
“How dare he!” Casper roared furiously, “This is the Blood Moon Pack! I don’t fucking care if he is a Lycan! I will skin him alive if he touches my sister!!”
Just then, Kass strode into the lobby with a group of soldiers behind him.
“I searched the mountain. I didn’t find Janet,” he said hastily. “But this guy said that he knew something.”
He called to the soldiers, and they brought up a steward.
The steward seemed panic–stricken. He dropped to his knees and cried in a shaky voice, “I–I talked to Princess Janet around dusk…”
“Why didn’t you say something sooner!” Casper rushed forward and grabbed the steward’s collar, “What did she say?!”
“She asked me where King Westin was…I told her that King Westin went into the back mountain, and she said that she would go find him…”
This confirmed Daran’s word!
Janet was really with Westin before she went missing!
“Search for Westin!!” Casper yelled, “Find the Lycans! NOW!”
“I have my men on it already.”
Kass looked up from his phone with an anxious face, “They just reported back…The surveillance camera captured a car leaving the packhouse and heading down south 2 hours ago…
“They took Janet away!” Balvina shrieked angrily.
Daran turned on his heels abruptly and dashed to the front door.
Rage and hatred clouded his mind.
…Westin!
When he found that son of a bitch, he would fucking KILL HIM!
<hr/>Janet woke up from the slumber with a splitting headache and found herself in the back of a truck.
Memory from before she passed out came back to her gradually.
And she remembered, the conversation she had with Westin, how he hit her on the neck and knocked her out.
She tried to sit up.
But then she found that both of her hands and feet were tied up with ropes. There was also duct tape on her mouth, keeping her from crying out for help.
She also got a bitter taste in her mouth. Probably wolfsbane. To keep her from shifting. Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.
Fury surged up in her chest.
…Westin!
Where was that fucking jerk taking her?!
She used her knees and elbows to crawl forward and approached the back door of the
truck. The door rattled as the car drove forward and there was a crack between the doors.
She narrowed her eyes and peeked through that narrow crack.
They were driving down a freeway.
It didn’t seem anywhere she had been to before.
The roadsides were lined with brown and withered vegetation. Everything seemed bleak and deserted. There weren’t any buildings within her sight.
The moon was hanging in the middle of the night sky.
Janet remembered that she was knocked over before the night fell completely.
So if she hadn’t stayed unconscious for more than one day, it probably would have been just a couple of hours.
And it was highly likely that they were still in Blood Moon Pack.
Which meant that there was still a chance for her to escape.
Janet took in a deep breath.
She gathered all her might and kicked on the rattling door with both of her legs!
BANG!
A loud noise echoed in the truck.
She kicked again.
BANG!
The truck halted to a sharp stop.
She perked up her ears and heard sounds of the door opening and closing, heavy footsteps approaching, and then-
The truck’s door was wrenched up from the outside.
Westin stood outside of the truck. Silver moonlight depicted his handsome profile.
He looked at her furious face and lifted his lips into a faint smile:
“What is the matter? Are you hungry? Or do you need to pee?”
